MURRAY, KY – Murray-Calloway County Hospital’s Center for Rehab and Sports Medicine, a leader in healthcare rehabilitation, is proud to announce pelvic floor therapy as part of its comprehensive services. This innovative therapy is designed to address a wide range of conditions related to pelvic health, providing relief and improved quality of life for individuals.

Pelvic floor therapy involves tailored techniques and exercises aimed at strengthening and relaxing the muscles of the pelvic floor, which play a crucial role in bladder and bowel control, sexual health, and core stability. The therapy can help address issues such as:

  • Urinary and fecal incontinence
  • Pelvic pain
  • Painful intercourse
  • Postpartum recovery
  • Post-surgical rehabilitation
  • Pelvic organ prolapse

A Growing Need for Specialized Care

Research indicates that millions of individuals experience pelvic floor dysfunction at some point in their lives, yet many suffer in silence due to a lack of awareness or stigma surrounding these conditions.

What to Expect

The therapy, led by licensed and specially trained physical therapists, includes:

  • Comprehensive assessments to understand the patient’s unique needs
  • Customized exercise programs to strengthen or relax the pelvic floor muscles
  • Manual therapy to address muscle tightness or scar tissue
  • Education on lifestyle modifications for long-term benefits

The therapy is now available at the Center for Rehab and Sports Medicine. Patients can be referred by a healthcare provider or may contact the clinic directly to schedule an initial consultation.
